Prosecuting Agent John =. Fowler Col
lecting Fees.
The new prosecuting agent, John S.
Fowler, in conjunction with Daley who
is able to furnish points, has been making
general raid upon licensed saloon keep
ers who are charged with keeping side
doors open on the Sabbath day. There
is law which prohibits the selling of
liquors or beer ON Sunday, although it is
permitted ON other days. Just what
logical reasons exist for closing saloons
on Sunday is not quite clear. 1t is I'M
doubtedly in Difference To To the religious
sentiment of some of our leading citizens
that Sunday is selected as day of rest
for the guileleSS saloonist. But the pros
ecuting agent gets a living out of the
law. Its an i'll wind" etc.

A REPORT comes from San Francisco
to the effect that the Southern Pacific
Company will make very extensive i'm
provements in Santa Barbara. Amongst
other projects is the building there of a
great hotel on the plan of the Del
Monte. But there is an absurd side to
the story, and that is that the Company
are determined to make Santa Barbara q
rival to Pasadena! What rivalry there
can be between Pasadena and Santa Bar
bars, i. would be difficult to conceive.
Santa Barbara is watering place on the
coast; Pasadena is a beautiful gem set
upon a magnificently improved mesa
thirty miles inland. If one wanted to go
to a watering place one would not go to
Pasadena; and if one wanted to ruralize
upon beautiful bench in the interior.
surrounded by splendid scenery and in
the midst of orange groves and vine
yards, one would not go to Santa Bar.

but there is no more rivalry between
them than there is between Santa Cruz
